Is it OK for a Christian to Bear Arms?

Believers are being bullied as never before. What are we to do? Jesus chewed Peter out for brandishing a sword to defend our Lord. But other scriptures make you wonder if we always have to turn the other cheek …

In the United States,“It is clear,” claim the editors of the Religious Freedom Coalition, that an “all-out war" is being "waged against religious liberty within the U.S. armed forces.” Christians are being “threatened with the loss of their careers if they dare speak out” against policies such as the recent removal of the words 'so help me God' from the official Air Force oath.Indeed, Lt. General William Boykin was forced to retire from his post as Deputy Undersecretary of Defense after a Los Angeles Times reporter recorded him testifying of his Christian faith in churches in Oklahoma and Texas. Navy chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt was forced to resign after he refused to quit praying in the name of Jesus.
